Beyond the Four Walls

The second quarter of the year brought significant challenges as regular donations declined; yet, through God's faithfulness and the support of local churches and schools, the Centre received crucial non-perishable food supplies, allowing it to continue reducing malnutrition and promoting healthy habits among the children.

Through partnerships with the Mayor's Office of Medellín and the Lions Club, the Centre provided health workshops to its beneficiaries and community members. Alongside this, the psychologist continues to safeguard the children by offering tools to prevent child sexual abuse and combat the commercialization of children for sexual tourism.

In a momentous step towards future expansion, the Centre has purchased a new house in the San Javier neighbourhood thanks to the generosity of donors through Hope Story. This new home will enable it to serve more children, meet their diverse needs, and continue the work towards their holistic growth and spiritual development. The children's growing understanding of Jesus and their efforts to share the values like forgiveness and love with their families are signs of lasting impact of the Centre's work that extends beyond its four walls.
